Letter from Deb…
Typically, I would never share a letter that I receive from Deborah. They are personal and they are each very meaningful to me. This one is a true love letter. It says so much in so little words. Truly I love her. We have been through terrible times together and those times have brought us [...]
While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us…
Romans 5:8 “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” There is a person at my place of employment with the license plate “LFISGD”. I asked her about it one time and she told me it meant Life is Good. When I first saw [...]
The Word of God, Or A Self-Help Book??
What is up with today’s preachers on television? As I sit here and watch, I wait for them to preach God’s Word. Instead, what I see is people turning the Bible into a self-help book. God will do this for you, heal this for you, give you money, cars, clothes, and vacations. Friends, we have [...]
Are you wrestling with God?
Genesis 32:24-26 So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him till daybreak. When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob’s hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man. Then the man said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.” [...]

Celebrate Recovery gives addicts hope…
This is an article that was printed in the Statesman Journal on Saturday October 13, 2007. Written by SJ journalist Hank Arends. “Hi. My name is Dan. I’m a grateful believer in Jesus Christ and am in recovery from meth addiction and alcoholism.” That is how Danial Ficek of Salem introduces himself [...]
It is finished.
John 19:30 “So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, ‘It is finished.’ And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.” It is finished. Three words say it all. I could stop writing now, because all that needs to be said has been said. It is finished. I’m not going [...]
Some thoughts on spiritual warfare…
I read a letter that a teenager wrote to her mom. It was so sad. All about how her grandma is whacked out on drugs and screaming for someone to give her a gun so she can just shoot herself. All in front of her granddaughter. Wow drugs suck. This entire deal is [...]
Why a blog?
Deb and I like to share our thoughts on life and the Word of God. It’s fun to hear what other people think and it also provides an outlet for frustrations at times! We consider ourselves to be fairly new belivers fully committed to serving Christ that have been brought down by the things of the world [...]
